Rodgers happy with Suarez situation

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers insists he is satisfied with how the situation with Luis Suarez has been dealt with.

Suarez, 26, claimed earlier this month he had been promised a year ago that he could depart the Reds if they failed to qualify for this season's Champions League.

Both Rodgers and the club dismissed those claims, insisting that they are under no obligation to sell the player.

As a result, the Uruguay international was ordered to train on his own last week, while Rodgers said that Suarez would not be allowed to join up with the rest of his team-mates until he said sorry for showing "total disrespect" to the club.

"I am satisfied with how everything has been resolved and we as a club are looking to the future," Rodgers said. "There is nothing to be said there. I won't be saying anything on Luis Suarez and that is only purely out of respect for the [other] players."

After enduring a tricky start to his Manchester United career, perhaps it is fair that Marcos Rojo celebrated so boisterously as he watched his first professional club Estudiantes beat fierce rivals Gimnasia
